Simport and Social Features
Details can be found here: Additions to the Game via Sims 3 Patch 1.31
Notes
- Simport is not available with the patch, so no worries there (the code is in the game but you won't see any of that).
- The ingame messages can be turned off completely.
- On the ingame wall you see almost everything you see in your MyPage but I was getting a delay. I'm also not sure about the stuff that is getting uploaded. It seems you get messages about shared memories but not about stuff that is being uploaded to the exchange. You do see all comments you would also see on your MyPage.
- The wall is only visible if you actively go there.

Achievements
- Achievements are not being recognized on the wall despite of being completed ingame (bunbunnyny)
- Achievments in the game and on the website are not in-sync (Thread)
- Achievements are not being completed (ivinian)
- Achievement gets grayed out after completing all achievements and they cannot be checked anymore (geminiagre)
Memories
- Memories can't be uploaded (bunbunnyny, sam123)
- Only memories with pictures can be uploaded (bunbunnyny)
Conversations
- Conversations can't be started ingame (bunbunnyny, droc99)
- Conversations seem to idle out after awhile. Re-login solves that (bunbunnyny, Sarah3120, http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/795/505859.page#8006756)
SimPort
- Accepting a tour request makes the game auto-pause. Unpausing is then not possible anymore (silverkitty15, chococat9)
--> Change to buy/build mode to get the paused game unstuck (XTS2009)
- Graphic Glitches after show (carla70)
- Can't go into edit town after turning off game when the SimPort Sim would not arrive (bluegayle_).
--> Remove the Sims from SavedSims and Downloads, especially if you have duplicates
- Successful performance despite the Sim never arriving (Nintendo277, jobug1015)
- Only 100% Human Sims can use SimPort (ZeekSlider)
--> Unclear if this is the case at this point. The system might just be more fluky with them (Mimine17, Msrednotdead)
--> Not a bug if it tells you so when you try. Bug if it doesn't.
- Friends can't accept Sim on tour (Druscylla)
- SimPort doesn't live update if you haven't had much online activity/requests in approximately an hour (ZeekSlider)
- SimPort is cloning phones and they can't be silenced (Tommy92,KarinL, Tommy92, KarinL, Crizzy2468, Arty)
- Ability to send out Sim that is already on tour again is clogging up the tourbook (KarinL, ZeekSlider, ZeekSlider, ZeekSlider)
--> Switch into household with a Sim that qualifies for SimPort to clear up (ZeekSlider)
--> Step-by-Step solution by tallcoolone
- Reward was rewarded early (ZeekSlider)
- SimPort marks Sim as dead and sells their car. They come back fine though just without the car. (EngramAu)
- Using the "booking a tour" save with Simport takes forever, and frequently hangs or crashes to desktop (tea_and_blues, tea_and_blues)
- Invisible Sims on Stage (n00biityo, Nicoleamoral)
--> Thread on the issue: Sarah3120)
--> Thread on the issue: @SimGuruSNelson: Simport hosting issues I run into repeatedly
- When sending a sim on tour and your friend does not accept the request before your sim returns , your game acts as if you are noty logged in after your sim returns (geminiagre)
- Sim was there but no show. Map tag only goes away on reload (Arletta, crinrict)
- Intermittent fault when a sim is porting into my town where the game tries to get stuck on pause (Simbolic)
- Game still runs in the background when you book a tour (SimsVIP_Admin, Crinrict)
--> Pause the game before you SimPort
